Enterprise Flash Storage Market

Global Enterprise Flash Storage Market Size (2021 – 2026)

The global enterprise flash storage market is foreseen to record a CAGR of about 13.67%, during the outlook period (2020-2025)

Flash Storage is a type of data storage technology based on electrically programmable high-speed memory. These storage solutions write data and perform random I / O operations at variable speed. Enterprise flash storage solutions are used in various industry applications mainly due to benefits such as faster application performance, future-proof infrastructure, improved performance and capacity, among others.

Growth in enterprise-generated data, along with increasing adoption of cloud technology, is expected to drive the enterprise flash storage market. Flash storage adoption continues to grow in enterprise data centers around the world, in addition to the power consumption, performance, scalability and manageability benefits that drive the rate of storage adoption. It is predicted that by 2022, more than 72% of businesses are expected to migrate to cloud data centers from on-premises data centers.

The growth of the computing device market has been advancing over the past two decades. In the business world, data storage is a decisive and essential element. Enterprise applications, media, analytics, database, and many others are crucial in data growth of any organization. The data also includes details about customers and employees, company finances, and project information. Today, businesses use flash memory chips instead of hard drives to store their data. In businesses, the use of SSDs made up of flash memory for mass storage of data or files is called enterprise flash storage. Flash storage generally provides an alternative to storage on hard drives (HDD) or other media. Enterprise flash storage offers faster I / O operations.

Recent Developments:

• May 2020 - Dell Technologies Inc announced the introduction of the new Dell EMC PowerStore addition to its mid-range enterprise all-flash storage. The solution offers new sets of features, such as its ability to run applications on storage hardware and a free upgrade. It is said to be at least seven times faster and three times slower than other Dell EMC storage arrays because it is designed with faster NVMe protocol and additionally supports storage class memory through Intel Optane hard drives.
• In 2019, Equinix Inc., a global interconnect and data center provider, announced the expansion of Platform Equinix with the construction of the company's fourth International Business Exchange data center in Singapore, called SG4. This new facility is likely to offer a premium data center and interconnect services to help organizations with their cloud adoption and IT transformation initiatives, while boosting Singapore's digital infrastructure.

Impact of Covid-19 on Enterprise Flash Storage Market:

Amid the global pandemic, COVID-19 with the increase in data consumption due to the lockdown, starting in March 2020, is expected to lead to shortages and higher prices of memory and storage products to counter demand for data center operations. For example, a US-based broadband company suggested broadband consumption in March 2020 was 400 GB per subscriber, an 11% increase from a monthly record of 361 GB in January. 2020.

However, as the electronic supply chain in China and Korea begins to recover, amid declining cases of COVID-19 in those countries, the supply chain gap is expected to narrow.

Market Growth and Trends:

• The market has evolved considerably since then and the use of storage devices has spread to almost all areas of the data center and has entered various areas of IT.
• Hard drives are not sold out in the market and still have a considerable share. The computing industry relied heavily on hard drives to store data before the evolution of the cloud and online drives. The growth rate of flash storage devices is significantly higher in the market. This transformation is occurring slowly, but an efficient solution for physically storing data provides more data security than any other online database used for storage.
• The increase in the advancements in high-density flash technologies have strengthened all-flash storage solutions to provide improved performance and extended capacity in a fraction of the data center space. As IT industry data volumes continue to grow, businesses can achieve significant cost savings over time by simplifying management and reducing space, power, and cooling costs.

Market Drivers and Restraints:

Businesses often use flash storage technology to store their data. There are many factors that determine the enterprise flash storage market, such as data security and protection. Data is an essential part of any organization, which is why they are constantly working on the adoption of SSD to protect their data. This is the main factor affecting the overall growth of enterprise flash storage.

To maintain and store data, you need flash storages and corporate flash storages are slightly more expensive than hard drives. The cost of flash storage is the primary factor restricting the growth of the enterprise flash storage market. Most small and medium businesses face this challenge, especially start-ups.
